Have you been hearing about Bush's inaugural festivities? Why, it seems that 200 of the President's closest pals have thrown together a party replete with nine… well, balls, including:
<ul>
<li>CONSTITUTION BALL (Washington Hilton),
<li>FREEDOM BALL (Union Station),
<li>INDEPENDENCE BALL,
<li>TEXAS WYOMING BALL,
<li>LIBERTY BALL,
<li>DEMOCRACY BALL,
<li>PATRIOT BALL,
<li>STARS AND STRIPES BALL, all at the Convention Center, and of course, the
<li>COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF BALL.
</ul>
<br>
All of these are being held simultaneously, which I think is great. Bush fans are going to have to choose which values they prioritize–democracy? Freedom? Patriotism? A particular decorating scheme? Great Anointed Leader himself?
This, by the way, is a tab-delimited file with the names and amounts each donor contributed to the Inaugural, whose theme is, get this,
